Very cool experience going out into the local mangroves from the bay walking area whilst the sun was setting and the skies were turning dark. Whilst it was difficult to capture the firelfies on a phone camera, I was able to see them in person for the first time. The host was well organised and gave us some information on these fireflies. Very unique experience which was followed by dinner on the journey back to Puerta Princesa. Food was local and tasted great, with plenty of vegetarian and meat options available. During the journey to the mangroves, we had the freedom to go onto the roof of the boat or hang around any part of the boat for the views. Would recommend this tour as it's laid back and unique.
